Win the congress, then impeach Trump. Win the presidency, then impeach Gorsuch. And in the meantime, fight like hell.
"Using the political system to hold a seat vacant so you can put someone you like on it is good but using the political system to make a seat vacant for the same reason is bad" sure is an interesting take.
I seriously want someone to explain to me why refusing to hold a vote on Garland was a legitimate exercise of political power but removing Gorsuch from office would not be.
And don't bring me any "it's not going to happen" silliness, either. I didn't ask whether it was going to happen, and I didn't offer a prediction on whether it's going to happen.
It's amazing to me how much people who are perfectly okay with the degradation of American democracy that's happening right now are freaking out about a community college professor's idle musings about a wildly unlikely hypothetical.
So heartened to see all the conservative support for democratic norms in my mentions.
